From June to September, we live basically in Summer dresses from white maxis to floral-print midis and silhouettes with ruffled sleeves. During the day, these seasonal silhouettes make for an effortless and breezy outfit with comfortable and practical accessories like flat sandals, roomy tote bags, sunglasses, and hats. Come night time, however, a Summer dress can feel a little casual with said accessories for drinks, dinner, or a party, which is why knowing how to transition a Summer dress from day to night is essential (and trust us, it's easier than you think).
From easy bag swaps to simple shoe changes and a mix of extras suited for the sun and after hours, ahead, we're breaking down 8 easy ways to transition a Summer dress from day to night.
